See, this is the soft of thing that concerns me. I just bought an Allegiance and love the bow. But, there was a rash of limb failures on Bowtechs last year. Now, I know all of the Bowtech faithful is going to come to the rescue and make a lot of excuses for why they had this issue arise last year, but it makes me wonder.

I can't recall seeing pics of any of the failed limbs, but I seem to remember seeing something about most of them being where the limb is the most flexed, as is where Buck Magnets is. I have already noticed an enormous different between my Allegiance and my previous Hoyts as to limb pre load. The Bowtech seems to have much, much more preload in it. It makes sense to me that if that limb were to fail, it would fail where the most extreme bend is in the limb.

Now, I"m not going to make a mountain out this. I really like my Allegiance and its probably the nicest shooting bow I've ever owned. I don't know much about whether Bowtechs limbs are laminated or solid. I just hope I don't ever go through that. Honestly, if the limb were to fail on my Allegiance, its back to Hoyt for me.
